Host-pathogen dynamics in experimental populations of Silene alba and Ustilago violacea. I. Ecological and genetic determinants of disease spread

1994-01-01

Abstract excerpt

1. To investigate the influence of within and among season factors on spread of anther-smut disease (Ustilago violacea), experimental populations of susceptible and resistant plants of (Silene alba) were established in a natural setting. 2. Frequency and density of diseased plants were both important predictors of percentage infection at the end of the growing season, but their relative importance varied across ye...
